Samenvatting:

"Robbie's Trail through Adoption - Adult Guide" (ISBN: 978-1-935831-05-1) is part of an educational, dialogue-opening series for kids. The complete series consists of this adult guide, "Robbie's Trail through Adoption - Activity Book" (ISBN: 978-1-935831-04-4) and either the "closed adoption" story ("Robbie's Trail through Adoption," ISBN: 978-1-935831-03-7) or the "open adoption" story ("Robbie's Trail through Open Adoption," ISBN: 978-1-935831-06-8). These pieces, sold separately, are designed to work together to help adoption-eligible children communicate better with their adoptive parents and child welfare professionals. Though not intended as adoptive parent training, "Robbie's Trail through Adoption - Adult Guide" contains a wealth of background information, several tips for helping adoption-eligible children and perhaps much-needed perspective about adoption-eligible children in general. Additionally, this piece includes instructions for facilitating the exercises in "Robbie's Trail through Adoption - Activity Book," talking points and answers when applicable. The Robbie Rabbit stories and their supplemental materials are designed specifically for foster parents, adoptive parents and/or caseworkers who want to: (1) Help a foster child and/or an adoption-eligible child adjust better to tough changes in life; (2) Promote communication between the child and the important people in his life; and (3) Gain insight into a child's feelings and interpretation of the world around him.
